Gardaí tweet pictures of alcohol seized at beach

Gardaí have released images showing alcohol that was confiscated at Portmarnock beach in Dublin yesterday.

Posting on Twitter, gardaí said that people should enjoy the amenities, but reminded the public that it is illegal to drink alcohol on the beach.

According to the Fingal County Council Beach/Foreshore Bye-Laws 2006, it is illegal to "sell or consume any alcoholic beverages on the beach/foreshore as defined in the Fingal County Council Prohibition of Consumption of Intoxicating Liquor on Roads and in Public Places Bye-Laws 2002”.
